The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Although she said she absolutely trusted Link, Emily obviously didn't think so in her heart.

Because since the next day, she has been frantically collecting all kinds of knowledge about fire dragons, trying to help Link find out the secret to dealing with fire dragons.

This is not an easy task.

Although creatures such as fire dragons have been completely conquered by wizards, they have even been hunted to the point where they need to be listed as protected animals and kept in captivity.

But that doesn't mean they're weak.

In fact, just the dragon skin with powerful anti-magic properties and the dragon flame that can melt most metals are enough to crush 90% of individual wizards in the world.

For this reason, Emily even secretly consulted Old Kled, and then prepared a bunch of things and plans for Link, such as using large traps, dragon-hunting guns, and powerful sleeping pills.

These things were all used by Old Kled and the others when they were poaching fire dragons, and there was no doubt about their practicality. It was a pity that the judges of the Triwizard Tournament would not allow Link to use these things.

But Link still happily accepted Emily's kindness and turned a deaf ear to it.

Quan was the method Emily used to relieve her own tension.

Days like this continued until the day of the game.

On this day, classes at Hogwarts have been suspended since noon, and all the students, led by the prefects of their respective houses, gradually made their way to the fire dragon's paddock at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Of course, these students had no idea what they would see there.

As a warrior, Link did not set off with the large army, but waited in the Hufflepuff lounge.

Emily also received permission from the professors to stay with Link.

Perhaps because they were about to face the fire dragon, neither of them spoke as usual, but sat together in silence.

At this time, if someone who doesn't know the situation suddenly sees this scene, they may mistakenly think that Emily is the real warrior who wants to compete.

Because she seemed far more nervous than Link at this time.

"Link, the time is up, you need to rush to the venue to complete the first project."

Professor Sprout opened the door and shouted.

Link and Emily got up and followed Professor Sprout outside.

The usually bustling Hogwarts along the way was now deserted, and only the footsteps of the three of them echoed in the huge castle.

Professor Sprout obviously also knew what Link was going to face next.

She frowned and stopped talking for a while before helping Link straighten his clothes and said:

"Little Link, don't be too desperate for a moment. Honor and other things are actually bullshit, and they are nothing compared to our lives. So, if you really encounter any danger, don't force it, you must shout Come out."

Professor Sprout is not pretty, he is also on the fat side, and even his body is dirty from growing herbs all year round.

But her words were full of concern and kindness.

Link returned a sincere smile to Professor Sprout. Just when he was about to agree according to the other person's words, Emily beside him said first:

"Don't worry, Professor, it's just a fire dragon. Link will definitely be fine!"

Emily's expression was confident and proud, completely different from her appearance in the lounge just now.

Professor Sprout glanced at Emily and Link, sighed, and said nothing.

Due to the rapid development of their magic power and body, adolescent boys and girls always have the illusion that they are the center of the world, and they are so good at themselves that they feel that they can do anything.

In Sprout, that's what Emily was like.

After all, Link had performed so well in the past, so Emily thought it was normal for her little boyfriend to be omnipotent.

Pay attention to the official account: Book Friends Base Camp Follow to get cash and coins!

But Link's thoughts were different from Sprout's.

Emily was so nervous that she rushed to seek medical treatment for Link's illness. How could she just change her mind now?

Emily's attitude has changed so much now, maybe it's just to allow him to concentrate on the game, right?

Link held Emily's hand, and sure enough he found that her palms were covered in cold sweat.

This discovery made Link's smile become even gentler.

The three of them walked towards the venue in silence. As they walked around the edge of the Forbidden Forest and saw the completed fire dragon enclosure, bursts of vaguely audible cheers came from there.

Emily held Link's hand tighter. Her body seemed a little stiff, and the confident smile on her face disappeared. She said to Link with a pale face:

"Good luck! Darling... Darling!"

Emily's voice was inaudible, and she ran away as if she was running away.

Link, on the other hand, smiled even more happily.

He stood there and stared at Emily's back until Emily disappeared from his sight before he stepped into the tent where the warriors were resting.

Link was the last to arrive.

Before him, the other three warriors were already in position.

But none of their faces look pretty at this moment.

Krum's originally serious face became even harder at this moment.

Fleur was sitting alone on a wooden table in the corner, clutching her robe tightly with both hands, her face pale and looking sick.

It could be seen that she was almost extremely nervous.

Because usually when Link showed up, she would jump up and greet him with a smile, and maybe even make some side jokes.

But now, it was as if she hadn't seen Link at all.

Harry smiled and said hello to Link.

It's just that he seems to be so nervous that he can't even control his muscles, and his smiling face is uglier than crying.

Link's opinion of Harry has improved compared to when school first started this year.

The main reason is that Harry came to tell Link as soon as he learned about the fire dragon through Hagrid a few days ago, and also shared with Link several naive but sincere ways to fight the fire dragon - all of them. Hermione found it.

This sincere approach made Link feel that although Harry was a bit silly, at least he was still kind.

So upon seeing this, Link immediately stepped forward and put his arm around Harry's shoulders, laughing with him.

Thanks to his efforts, Harry was obviously much more natural than he had been at the beginning.

"Wow! It looks like our warriors are all in place! This is really great!"

Bagman shouted and walked into the tent. He was wearing an old uniform loosely, which was said to be the uniform from when he was a professional Quidditch player. "Then let me introduce the situation to you." Yes. You will need to draw lots later to determine the order of appearance and the...things to deal with! Of course, we will not expect you to defeat those guys. Your first task is just to steal the golden eggs they guard!"

Bagman's words made Harry's originally relaxed muscles become tense again. Fleur and Krum also looked similar. Only Link nodded to Bagman in support.

Bagman probably understood the current state of the Warriors very well. He immediately exited the tent, and did not reappear until the noise from the stands not far away became louder and louder. At the same time, he also had more in his hands. A purple silk bag.

There seemed to be something living in the bag, and it was rolling and struggling.

"Lady first."

Bagman smiled and handed the bag to Fleur.

Fleur was obviously very resistant to putting her hand into a bag containing unknown living creatures, but after struggling for a while, she finally quickly took out something as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

It was a small, lifelike model of a fire dragon.

"No. [-], Welsh Green Dragon!"

Bagman declared before turning the bag towards Krum.

Krum drew number three, the Chinese Fireball Dragon.

He obviously knew the information about the fire dragon in advance, so he didn't show the slightest surprise.

And when he thinks about it, Link wants to laugh.

Beauxbatons and Durmstrang are really in decline.

In order to obtain such a small amount of information, Beauxbatons' principal, Ms. Maxim, did not hesitate to use a honey trap against Hagrid, while Durmstrang's principal, Karkaroff, like a thief, sneaked into the paddock in the middle of the night to probe for information.

Even if cheating is a fine tradition of the Triwizard Tournament, it would be too shameful for the principal to take action personally.

While Link was thinking wildly, Harry had already drawn number one, Swedish Brachysaurus.

The mouth of the bag also moved in front of Link.

Although there was no suspense anymore, Link still took out the model of his No. [-], the Hungarian Horntail Dragon.

It has to be said that the staff of the Triwizard Tournament made these models very delicate, and these models can also move. For example, Link's Hungarian Horntail Dragon was lying on the palm of his hand and flapping its wings and roaring at Link.

Thinking of Emily's love for fire dragons, Link nodded with satisfaction, and then naturally stuffed the model in his hand into his seamless stretch bag.

Bagman turned a blind eye to Link's actions to enrich himself. He lowered his head slightly, leaned into Link's ear and said:

"Hey Link, you're a little unlucky. That's the Hungarian Horntail Dragon, the strongest fire dragon in this Triwizard Tournament! I have some friendship with your mother, and I think I can help you..."

"No need, Mr. Bagman," Link rolled his eyes, "I think I can do it myself."

Hearing this, Bagman was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said:

"Confidence is a good thing, that's for sure! Then we'll just wait and see how you perform! Don't worry, we've already established a good rapport at the referee's table. As long as you don't go too far, you can definitely get high scores!"

After saying this, Bagman blinked at Link and quickly ran to Harry's side, probably to say the same thing.

To be honest, what he did was a little too obvious.

But neither Fleur nor Krum had the slightest dissatisfaction with his behavior - they were both immersed in their own world at this time.

A sharp whistle sounded from nowhere.

"Merlin, we're going to be late!" Bagman pulled Harry out in a panic, "Hurry up!"

A few seconds later, there was another noise outside, which meant that Harry had entered the venue and was facing his Swedish Brachysaurus.

The three people in the tent were all listening to the sounds outside. Unfortunately, they were too far away from the scene, so they could only understand the situation outside through Mr. Bagman's magically amplified commentary.

Finally, to a deafening cheer, Bagman announced that Harry had finished the race.

This made Fleur feel like she was struck by lightning, because it was about to be her turn to play.

She was shaking all over and stood hesitating at the tent door.

After a long time, she turned her head and said in a hoarse and dry voice:

"Lin, Link, can you give me a hug?"

Link rolled his eyes.

After experiencing the beauty trap in the library, Link instinctively rejected contact with Fleur.

But seeing Fleur's despair and fear at this moment, Link finally sighed, stood up and opened his arms.

Fleur hugged him hard, as if she wanted to bury her whole body into Link's body.

It was also at this time that Link felt how violently Fleur was shaking. She could hardly stand!

For a long time, it was not until Bagman urged the next warrior to appear for the third time that Fleur's situation improved slightly and she let go.

"Thank you, Link."

A hoarse voice of thanks came slowly, but Furong's back disappeared from the entrance of the tent.

Then the process was basically the same as before. It wasn't until Bagman announced Fleur's success amidst cheers that Krum finally stood up.

Surprisingly, he did not leave immediately, but stood there and stared at Link expressionlessly.

This made Link shrink back instinctively and said with a vigilant look:

"You don't want to give me a hug, right? I'm not interested in hugging a strong man!"

Krum's English is poor, but this does not prevent him from reading the exact meaning from Link's eyes.

This made his expression darken, he snorted coldly and walked out in two quick steps.

Finally, only Link was left.

The faint fragrance of Hibiscus still lingered in the tent, and it smelled so good that Link couldn't help but close his eyes.

In fact, it was not just Emily and Professor Sprout during this time.

Hermione, Cedric, John, Mrs. Foley, Old Clay and others also advised Link not to push himself too hard in front of the fire dragon.

Even Snape, who knew Link's strength best, expressed in a very subtle way that if Link was willing, he could provide a potion that would make Link temporarily sick and unable to participate in the Triwizard Tournament.

This was not Snape's oblique venom, but genuine concern.

Link, who possesses the Legilimency Spell, is very sure of this.

But it was this kind of concern that made Link feel particularly uncomfortable.

"Really, why are you all so unsure of me? I'm just a fire-breathing lizard."

Link shook his head helplessly and said, "In that case, I will show you what absolute strength means."

"You're right? Arkham."

"Hisss!~"

A small snake head poked out from Link's collar and gently stuck out its tongue.

At the same time, the ebony wand that had been held in Link's hand seemed to sense the changes in his master's mood, and a faint light began to flicker on the tip of the wand.
